Southern Glazer's Wine & Spirits’ Post

It's disappointing how people see a group that clearly says voluntary participation, i.e zero pay, you join and then proceed to guilt tripping or smooth talking the group into getting paid. Volunteering involves using your 3Ts - Time, Talent and Treasure, if you can't afford it at the time, please, DO NOT VOLUNTEER, you will only frustrate others. Because they will keep begging you to do what you had promised. NOTE: Volunteering is not the Same as Internship Please. #volunteeropportunity #volunteering #volunteeringNOTinternship

My career was possible because of a few people who took a chance on me and provided me the opportunity for (paid) internships. So when Forbes Nonprofit Council wants to discuss how best to build an #internship program, I’m all in. Be sure to check our some of the great thinking from my colleagues. #nonprofits #nonprofitleadership #intern #leadership #professionaldevelopment #careerplanning

Dashboard as Philanthropy I work in a highly practical and profit-oriented field — dashboard implementation! However, I also engage in teaching and strive to assist aspiring professionals by offering free internships, sharing knowledge… Another non-commercial aspect of our work that I take pride in is guiding my students to create free dashboards for charitable organizations under my supervision!

Grateful for an Enriching Experience at Hope Uplift Foundation I am pleased to share that I’ve successfully completed a two-month internship at Hope Uplift Foundation. This internship, from June 12 to August 12, 2024, has been a remarkable learning journey, providing me with hands-on experience in various facets of nonprofit operations. During my time at HUF, I had the opportunity to: •Accounts Department: Gained an understanding of the difference between NPO and PO accounts, worked with Peachtree Software, and handled vouching and sourcing of invoices and funds received. •Application Writing & Helpline Operations: Developed skills in drafting donation pitches for individuals and NGOs and managed helpline calls, addressing issues and providing resolutions. •Administration: Attended detailed sessions on administration management, learning how to effectively manage staff and pitch for donations. •Digital Media: Created content for Instagram, YouTube, and the HUF website using Canva. •Women Empowerment HUB Store: Managed inventory, sales, and customer interactions while also contributing to the online store's product listings and descriptions. •Public Assistance: Explored different HUF sectors, brainstormed innovative fundraising ideas, and wrote letters to corporate CSR departments for potential partnerships. •Welfare and Furniture Shop: Managed invoicing, billing, customer relations, and product listings while assisting with the entire sales process, from donation collection to display. •Vocational Training Center: Learned about the center’s operations and how it empowers women through training in skills like stitching and pressing clothes. In addition, I had the privilege of stepping into a leadership role for two weeks, where I guided a team in executing several projects and initiatives. This experience not only enhanced my leadership and decision-making skills but also reinforced the value of teamwork and effective communication. This internship has not only expanded my knowledge and skills but also deepened my understanding of the critical role nonprofits play in community upliftment. I am incredibly thankful to Miss Lubna Shakoh, President and Founder, and Sir Shahroz Janjua , Director of the Internship Program, for their unwavering support and guidance. As I move forward, I am excited to apply what I’ve learned to future endeavors, always keeping in mind the importance of giving back to the community. #internship #nonprofit #leadership #hopeupliftfoundation #communityservice #professionaldevelopment

Tomorrow is the last day to participate in the Batten Alumni Advisory Board’s “Spring Challenge” to fundraise money for the University of Virginia Frank Batten School of Leadership and Public Policy. Donations go towards students whom pursue unpaid or underfunded internships in the public sector. This year, the goal is to raise $35,000 to support the Batten School’s future policy leaders. Your donation can: (1) Allow students to pursue internships that align with their passions in policy. (2) Alleviate any financial barriers that prevent today's student leaders from becoming tomorrow’s public servants. (3) Pay forward a metro swipe to work, a networking lunch, or a tank of gas to commute. Having experienced unpaid internships, I know these donations can very much be the margin of success for these students’ careers. The impact compounds far past just funding the internship, as that experience then leverages other opportunities down the road. Join us in raising money for the future policy leaders at the Batten School and help leave a lasting impact in these students careers by making your gift today! #GivingDay #UVA #Batten #PublicSector #Internships “ https://lnkd.in/eEBz9rZ8
